UPDATE 2018/05/09 (new Release v2.8.1) :

  • use esri/geometry/projection (available since esri js api 3.24) instead of proj4js (external libs)
  • systematic use of geometry engine (no more mercator utils, geometry server...)
  • for polyline, the user can now add an arrow (available since esri js api 3.23)
  • live measure while drawing
  • WARNING : this release needs Esri API >= 3.24

  • list
    • add list of all drawings
    • actions on each drawing : modify / delete / [up / down] / zoom
    • all drawings : zoom, copy, delete, export
    • on drawing infowindow -> select drawing in list
    • on zoom on a drawing -> select drawing on map (and show infoWindow)
    • re-order graphics with drag&drop
  • import/export : allow users to export or import drawings (json format)
    • import can be done with file drag&drop in import popup
  • localStorage

    • add arrow menu for polyline
  • checkbox to hide drawing's layer (and therefore widget UI)

Thanks Jeremie. This may not be exactly the goal of the widget as well, but when a user has several drawings in the drawings list, it would be nice for the user to export an individual drawing within the drawing list, not the entire list.

Zachary Schmitt​ Good idea. I will add it in a future release.

Hi,  Thanks for this widget. I wanted to ask if it is possible to publish the json file to ArcGIS online account as a GeoJSON?

Hello,

great widget! Works fine in WAB Dev Edition 1.1. I upgraded to WAB DEV Edition 1.2 but it seems that it will need a few tweaks to make it work in the latest edition?

"create widget error:

widgets/eDraw/Widget"

Have you experienced any issues with the latest edition yourself?

Thanks, Monika

Hello Monika,

Could you describe your context (browser(s), wab theme...) and, if possible, paste the whole error ?

I have some style's issues with new themes but the widget works for me.

Hi Jeremie,

I'm using Firefox 38.0.5. I have tried IE10 as well (10.0.9200.17413).  I tried every single theme which is available in WAB 1.2 - error message below:

Thanks, Monika

Thanks,

I havn't understood it was in the builder and in the widget configuration.

In deployed apps, the widget still works well with wab dev 1.2.

I can reproduce the error so i will dig it.

@Jeremie Cornet - is it possible to have the measurements update as the shapes are modified?  Or is there a way to create a new measurement based on shape modifications?

Adam Gebhart​ It's not possible now.

You're not the only one who wants that functionnality

I will add it in a future release but it's a big change in widget's architecture.
